'Mush!' Meet Sled Dogs at the Ocean County Library Stafford Branch
STAFFORD TOWNSHIP – Meet true champions and dedicated team players – all four-footed and furry. Join Jan Haring, co-owner of Sunriser Kennels in Jackson, for “All About Sled Dogs” at the Ocean County Library Stafford Branch, 10 AM Thursday, April 4.
You’ll become familiar with dog-powered sports and tasks, popular breeds, and how these canines become acclimated to their functions. You’ll also meet some of the hardy Siberian Huskies that Jan and her husband have raised since the 1980s.
The Harings, members of the Siberian Husky Club of America and Pennsylvania Sled Dog Club, have guided their dogs to victories in performance events, races, National Specialty competitions, obedience contests, Rallies and Barn Hunts. Their Siberians have been awarded SHCA Sled Dog titles for skills, responses and agility.
Additionally, a dog that they are training is ranked among the top five nationally in the 100-yard Fast CAT® (Coursing Ability Test) sprint under guidelines of the American Kennel Club. Sunriser-bred dogs have also won titles in Canada, Italy and Germany.
